Chuck has taken a darker tone this season, and “Chuck Versus the Tic Tac” was the best example yet, and it wasn’t even about Chuck. Showcasing Casey’s enigmatic past and Sarah continuing disillusionment of who Chuck is, the episode took a terrific step towards the impending climax of the arc. What makes the new developments [...]
“Because the only thing I hate more than hippie and neo-liberal fascists and anarchists are the hypocrite fat cat suits they eventually grow up to be.” John Casey, you are a gentleman and a scholar. The quote pretty much summarizes just how damn awesome the episode was.
In a sea of relationship melodrama this season, it [...]

Peters will remain an executive producer of the show, but fellow exec producer Jeffrey Bell is expected to depart.

Chuck could very possibly go on longer than expected this season — which raises the possibility that it could go on sooner as well.
NBC is in negotiations with Warner Bros. TV, which produces the cult series, about ordering as many as six more episodes of the show, The Wrap reports. That would bring the total [...]

Superman Returns star Brandon Routh will have a guest role on Chuck this season. He’ll be playing a character named Daniel Shaw in multiple episodes, beginning with the season’s fourth show, and he’ll be part of Chuck’s (Zachary Levi) spy world, but that is all we know.

Breathe easy and stock up on your foot-long sandwiches, Chuck fans: NBC has finally given the official word that the show will return next season.
That’s about all the information there is so far — the network is releasing its 2009-10 schedule later Tuesday morning, at which point we’ll know where the object of an intense [...]
NBC is adding six new series to its lineup for next season, and has confirmed new seasons for Heroes, Southland and Parks and Recreation — but there’s no word yet on Chuck, which has been the subject of a fierce lobbying campaign from critics and fans in the past couple weeks.
Hope is not lost, though: [...]
There was no doubt this week that the season (and hopefully not series) finale of Chuck was fast approaching. Chuck and Sarah expressed their feelings physically, the Intersect was removed from Chuck’s brain, Awesome found out that Chuck, Sarah, and Casey are spies, Chuck freed his father in time for Awesome and Ellie’s wedding and [...]
After a couple seasons of build up, Chuck finally tracked down his father this week. “Chuck versus the Dream Job” not only had the family drama, but a lot of revelations with regards to Orion and the Intersect and a nice build of momentum for the season finale.
Before I get into the good stuff, [...]
It certainly didn’t take long for the General’s concerns from last week about Chuck and Sarah’s relationship to result in definitive action as “Chuck Versus the Broken Heart,” saw agent Alex Forrest (Tricia Helfer) brought in to evaluate and ultimately replace Sarah as Chuck’s handler. Naturally, this lead to some Chuck and Sarah angst as [...]
As many of you may recall, I’ve been getting pretty tired of the endless Chuck/Sarah circles of angst that don’t really go anywhere. And for a while, it looked like that was exactly what “Chuck versus the Beefcake” was going to deliver. But, by the end of the episode, it looked like there might, just maybe, be some kind of non-circular development!
I found the last couple episodes to be a bit underwhelming. Fortunately, “Chuck vs. The Best Friend” was able to break that streak and signaled a return to the Chuck we all know and love.
Perhaps one of the most refreshing things about “Chuck vs. The Best Friend” is that it was about Chuck having relationship [...]
“Chuck vs. The Suburbs” was a rather uneven experience. The initial set-up for both the main plot and the B(uy More) plot just screamed conventional sitcom: Sarah and Chuck have to pretend they are married, hilarious hijinx ensue. Meanwhile, the Buy More employees try to get Big Mike a girlfriend, hilarious hijinx ensue. But both [...]
After a long month and a half, Chuck finally made its return this week with “Chuck vs. 3D.” All across America hundreds of thousands of 3D glasses were distributed so people could watch the 3D commercial for Monsters and Aliens. NBC decided to take advantage of this opportunity and also have an episode of Chuck [...]
